MORE FIRST THAN EVER!
Launched in 2006, the First 50 set the benchmark for the First range.
The many awards received worldwide since its launch, reflect its hugely successful impact on customers and the trade. That impetus now continues with the launch of the First 45.
Designed in close cooperation between Beneteau and Philippe Briand Yacht Design, the First 45 is offered with a large cruising equipment as standard. In the S version, the key words are Seduction and Comfort, whilst the Regatta version (choice of aluminum or carbon mast) is focused on performance for a program more racing than cruising: of course, there’s a choice of keel (shallow-draft cast iron as standard and lead deep-draft in option) for all versions, to suit everyone’s needs and all geographical areas.
